Building Communities Up: Working, Living, Thriving

WHO WE ARE

Backyard Fun without the Mess...

Located in Watkins Glen in the heart of the Southern Finger Lakes Region,

we are a family entertainment destination.

 

The Yard FLX is an 18-acre property featuring mini golf, a driving range, go-karts, yard games, and space for live music and events.

Helping the Community Thrive

We firmly believe that it all starts locally! Building up our community and becoming a go-to destination is our dream.

 

As a company, we want to engage with the local community by sponsoring local events, participating in charity initiatives, and hosting special events for schools and community organizations.

 

By developing relationships with nearby businesses we get to find out how each of us can help each other and make our community better as a result. 

WHO WE ARE

Message from the Founder

"As the founder of our business, my inspiration stems from a pivotal moment during a visit to Dallas with friends, where I stumbled upon a wonderful location where FUN reigned! Witnessing the vibrant communal atmosphere ignited a passion within me—an urge to replicate such a gathering hub within my own community.

With an extensive 25-year tenure in the mortgage industry, I've cultivated a prosperous business founded on principles of effective marketing, unparalleled customer service, and a deep understanding of human motivation. 

My vision revolves around infusing affordable family-centric entertainment, rooted in the belief that fun should be accessible to all.

This property holds a rich, three-decade history as the go-to destination for entertainment, and I am fervently committed to reviving its legacy. My goal is to resurrect this space as the heart of our community—a place where families gather, laughter resonates, and unforgettable memories are forged."
